 Web crawler reference
Python
We run the .py program on
our server and catch the web
information.
JSON Library
Through JSON library, we can
resolve massive data and
manage them before storing
into database.
Scrpay
It is a popular web crawler
module. It offers many output
data format such as json and
xml.
XML Library
Through XML library, we can
use tag and value to dynamic and sporadic web
store the massive data
caught from the web.
|xml|
|xml| is a python library used
to resolve html. After catched
by web crawler, the data
would be stored in html
format, which need to be
reolved by |xml|.
Selenium
web driver is able to catch
information. It can help
increase our web crawlers
efficiency.

Technical Challenge

28
Technical Challenge
Difficult to create a high-
efficiency web crawler
Our web crawler may sometimes miss
the data in .js format.
Web information is dynamic
Take pchome.com.tw as example, the
information in the web is dynamic and
sporadic, which is hard for web
crawler to catch the complete
information.

29
Technical Challenge-solution
High-efficiency web crawler
Use selenium library to let the web
crawler open the browser itself and
start catching data until the web
information is completely loaded.
Dynamic and sporadic
problems
Compare the newly input data to those
already save in the server. When
difference is detected, it means there
may be some missing information. 30
